Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

One cubic yard of landscape rock covers about 162 square feet at a 2 inch depth, which is the standard for most bed and groundcover applications. If you want more coverage per yard, staying at 2 inches instead of 3 stretches your material further without sacrificing weed suppression once fabric is down. Measure your bed's square footage first, then order by the cubic yard rather than guessing with bags.

One of the easiest customer service experiences I've had in a long time! Mulch Mound made it so simple. After putting it off for a while, I looked at the weather and knew I needed to get to mulching ASAP before the rain came if I didn't want to wait another week. I put my order in for the next day online and they came right at 9 AM. The employee who dropped off the mulch did a great job, putting it right on the tarp I laid out, she even made sure none of it got on the yard and double checked the truck bed to make sure it all came out. The mulch was exactly what I needed and arrived right on time.
Landscape fabric underneath is what makes rock a decade-long install instead of a weed patch by year two. Edging material keeps rock from migrating into the lawn or driveway, especially useful along Longview's sloped front yards. Some customers pair rock borders with mulch in planting beds where they still want organic matter feeding the soil.
Service area
In Longview's sandy loam, skip landscape fabric near established trees and shrubs that need root aeration, but use it everywhere else. Fabric plus rock creates a groundcover that can genuinely last a decade without disturbance, since our sandy soil won't heave the fabric loose the way clay-heavy regions sometimes do. Just know fabric traps falling leaves on top, so plan on an occasional blow-off in beds under oak or pecan trees.
The most common mistake we see is installing rock at 4 inches or deeper thinking it will suppress weeds better. It doesn't, and it wastes material fast. Stick to 2 to 3 inches over fabric. Anything deeper just adds cost without adding function, and it makes it harder to spot weed seedlings pushing through before they root into the fabric itself.
If you're doing a large front yard groundcover project, order landscape rock and edging material in the same delivery to save a trip. Rock pairs well with steel or paver edging in Longview yards with any slope, since loose rock migrates downhill during heavy spring rains if there's nothing holding the line. Bundling materials also means one delivery day instead of two.
Longview's sandy loam drains well already, so rock does not fight standing water the way it might in heavier clay soils. That same fast drainage means bare ground and thin turf show up quickly in the July and August heat, and rock groundcover covers that problem permanently instead of needing a spring refresh. With zone 8b winters staying mild, there is no frost heave to worry about once the base is set. Homeowners near the Arboretum area tend to use it for clean foundation borders that hold their look through Longview's long growing season.
Landscape rock is stone chosen for how it looks as much as what it does. River rock is smooth and rounded, decomposed granite is fine and packs firm underfoot. Both are sold by the cubic yard for beds, borders, paths, and dry creek beds.
River rock stays loose and rolls, so it suits beds, borders, and drainage runs where it can sit in place. Decomposed granite compacts into a firm surface, so it suits paths, patios, and anywhere you will walk or roll a wheelbarrow.
Spread river rock 2 to 3 inches deep over landscape fabric so it stays put and weeds stay down. Lay decomposed granite 3 to 4 inches deep, wet it, and compact it in lifts for a surface that sheds water instead of rutting.
